Like most American's, if
not all, I grew up hearing about The Legend of Paul
Bunyan.
................The
stories captivated my
imagination.............Especially for this big city
kid whose only
experience with the
woods and the wilderness was mostly in books or on
T.V.
So I guess it wasn't a
stretch for me to write The Ballad of Paul Bunyan
and put it on my first solo album entitled He Ain't
Done With Me Yet.
I would like to send you
a copy to see if it is worthy of the Great Legend
and perhaps inclusion in your Festival.
The song is set around
the fire at the camp grounds after a long day of
lumberjackin' and legend building...............
You can just see Paul
and Babe resting by a tree not far from the warmth
of the fire as all Seven Elmers pick up instruments
and break out into this
pure Americana, jug
band tune......................"THE BALLAD OF PAUL
BUNYAN"
thank you for the
consideration and I appreciate you and your time,
What a
pleasure to see this picture! This picture is of my
grandparents and aunt. My mom is Nancy Case Olson. So
much fun to go to this link and see some of the town I
used spend my summers in when I was a kid!
Thanks for a great informative site.

Hi
Just
looking at your website. My maiden name is Akeley. My great
grandfather was Carl Akeley. If it wasn’t so cold in Minn,
I would move there just for the ‘name’.

Does anyone know of
Charles Andres family in the Chamberlain area?
Looking for his phone
number and or address as I will be in Akeley
on July 9th, 2008. Or
if preferred they can call me.
I am a long lost
cousin of Charles traveling through from
California. My late
grandparents Morris and Minnie Sutliff raised
their family in
Chamberlin area and in Akeley.
Thanks for any help.

Hi! I
went through the community of Akeley today and somewhere
on that gorgeous hiway I saw a small pull behind travel
trailer with a for sale sign on it. It was outside of a
resort that I thought was call the Run Away Bay Resort.
I cannot find a phone number for this resort any where!
SOS.’
Thank
you so much for any assistance that you might be able to
give me here. I am looking for a small used trailer to
buy. Needs to accommodate 1 person and be in all
working condition. No more that $2000.00 and it matters
not how old it is.

I
was wondering if some one would know if the wood tick
theater opens this weekend? [Email]
I will be guiding
clients on Cass Lake throughout most of June, and want to take
them to Der Brauhaus. When does it open, and what are its days
of operation and hours?
Sincerely,
